Royal Herald in the Castle Courtyard
In medieval kingdoms, royal heralds served as official messengers who delivered announcements to the public. Positioned in the open space of a castle courtyard, these officials used loud instruments to gather citizens before reading royal decrees, news of tournaments, or official declarations from the ruler.
Historical Role of Castle Heralds
Heralds were trusted diplomatic officers who needed strong voices and extensive knowledge of noble crests. Before making announcements, they played specific fanfares so people throughout the castle complex knew an official message was arriving. Heralds also managed official ceremonies and recorded diplomatic meetings between royal figures.
Colors of a Medieval Herald and Courtyard
- Heraldic banner: deep red, blue, or gold depending on the royal coat of arms
